Note to Disenfranchised Utah Taxpayers and Voters

By Dorothy Littrell

You have an opportunity to help reclaim our right to vote on two very expensive and important bills that have been signed into law without voter input.

The Soccer Stadium petition is now in Ogden at Ye Olde Salt Bike Shop, 105 25th Street, Ogden, to sign to bring the Soccer Stadium in Sandy before Utah taxpayers for their vote on the issue..

This is not just a Sandy issue because all Utahns will be paying for this stadium that Salt Lake County Mayor Peter Coroon and his financial experts determined was not financially viable. And we all heard that Governor Huntsman's wife decided that we needed the stadium.

Also, if you want an opportunity to get to vote on the School Voucher law that Huntsman just signed into law you can get information online at www.utahnsforpublicschools.org.

There is a deadline on both these petitions so if you want to claim your right to vote on these issues please sign a petition immediately.

Whether you are for against either of these bills that Governor Huntsman signed into law the real issue is that our right to vote as taxpayers has been taken from us and this is a demand to have that constitutional right returned.

It is most disheartening to have to petition Utah Governor Huntsman for that right to be to be returned.

Thanks for your help!

Update 3/17/07 4:15 p.m. MT: We have learned from one of our intrepid east bench gentle readers that Weber County lumpencitizens interested in overturning the legislature's School Voucher Law/Private School Handout can affix their signatures to the "Voucher Petition" by calling here: Deborah: 393-1379.

Please do this well prior to March 19, 2007 @ 6:00 p.m., which is the official petition deadline.

The timeline is very short!
